NEW YORK, March 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- About OA
OA is a condition in which the cartilage, a material that cushions the joints, breaks down. This leads to stiffness, inflammation, pain, and loss of joint movement. The exact etiology of OA is not fully understood. Obesity, overuse of the joint, weak thigh muscles, aging, and genetics are some of the common risk factors of OA; OA symptoms usually develop progressively. At first, there may be stiffness that appears to be more a niggle than a medical concern. Treatment is given depending on the affected joint, including the hand, wrist, neck, back, knee, and hip, and involves medication and exercise.
TechNavio's analysts forecast the Global OA market to grow at a CAGR of 8.55 percent over the period 2014-2019.
